This new procedure represents a substantial change in the treatment of distal penile urethral strictures, a pathology that has historically required complex interventions with a high risk of complications and slower recovery.
The technique, applied for the first time at the center, has been led by the urologist specializing in urethral reconstructive surgery, who highlighted its benefits. The first procedure performed showed excellent clinical evolution and no complications, opening the door to a better quality of life for those affected.
“"This is a very relevant advance in reconstructive urology. Being able to treat these strictures without external incisions not only means an improvement from a surgical point of view, but also a much more favorable experience for the patient."
Among the main advantages of this innovative approach is the considerable reduction in the risk of infections and other complications associated with traditional surgery, as visible wounds are avoided. In addition, postoperative pain is significantly less, which facilitates faster and more comfortable recovery for patients.
Agile recovery is one of the most valued aspects, as many patients can be discharged in just 24 hours and resume their normal lives in a much shorter period than with conventional techniques. This approach not only improves the safety of the procedure but also its long-term results, offering very satisfactory functional outcomes and optimal aesthetic results.
This advance reinforces Vithas Valencia Consuelo Hospital's commitment to incorporating cutting-edge techniques based on scientific evidence, positioning the center as a benchmark in advanced urology in the Valencian Community.
